I'm not procastinating on my cleaning, what makes you think that?

Meme from unloveablehands: Explain three interests and three icons.

Becoming an elder god: Ahahaha! Oh, god. As with many things in my life, this came (I think) out of a conversation with ruby_fruit, or rather a series of conversations where she called me evil, and then I turned into Chtulu and tentacled at her, and then she squicked, so I of course kept doing it, and there was mention of "I hate it when my friends become elder gods," and so I added that to my interests. And that was less an explanation and more of a making it even more incomprehensible, but there you have it.

Being a slash anarchist: I can't recall if I meant this in the sense of "I will slash anyone and anything, often completely at random," or in the sense of "I will slash what I want to slash and unless you have an actually convincing argument for why my right to write RPF or incest is encroaching on someone else's rights, I will continue to do so and ignore your semi-arbitrary rules, thank you very much." I think mostly the latter, since I seem to remember having this interest in some form or another since I first got this LJ back when the RPS war was still in full swing. (... Yeah, I've had this thing for a long time.)

Teddy!Jayne: This one is carelessmemory's fault, I believe. Because Jayne Cobb as a wee teddybear, with a wee knitted hat and a wee gun? Would bhe adorable. And I want one. I think the conversation was originally about wanting Firefly plushies, maybe? So there wasn't much of a jump to make. :D

Again, this is ruby_fruit's fault. I was complaining about being old, and she said I wasn't old, I was young and fresh, "like parsley"! So I obviously turned around and asked, if I was parsley, which herb that made her. It ... sort of went from there, and I'd like to say in my defense that I was sleep-deprived and/or drunk, but I don't actually think I was either. Er. So, yes. We're a comic duo! We should take thyis show on the road. :D

At one point, I think when I got gifted a permanent account, I made an icon for every fandom I've ever been in -- well, been in properly, or even my permanent account with 32 extra loyalty icons wouldn't have enough icon spaces for that. This is one of those, for Biker Mice from Mars. "Don't ask" is about the best explanation I could come up with, because really, how doesone explain that one used to write slash for a cartoon series about antropomorphic mice (OMG FURRY!)? One doesn't, is how.

Aaaand this one is ruby_fruit's fault again. Or possibly this one is my fault, since I planted the mental image of a poor wee plot bunny getting eaten by carnivorous daisies into her head. But she's the one who drew it! So, ALL HER FAULT!

Wanna play? Comment and I'll give you three interests and three icons to explain.

Also, I can't connect to femgeeks via FTP anymore. It recognizes my username but not my password. oO Wtf?

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Fuckdammit! I'll look into that, thanks. (I've had similar issues with my webmail, might have to do a mass reset of passwords of something. Stupid technology. Thanks for the heads-up!)

Aaaand meme:
nightwish
the faint
wallabies

[lightandashes.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It's just irritating, you know?


Aaaand meme:

Nightwish: Gothic rock band with an amazing female vocalist, one of my favourites. I highly recommend them.

The Faint: Synthpop band with lyrics that make no sense half the time but for some reason I love them anyway.

Wallabies: Wallabies are cool, and Rocko was the shit. The Australian Wallabies (along with the New Zealand All Blacks) are also my favourite rugby team.



Ahahahaha, I can blame this one on Tris. She got me back into football (fuckdammit, now I'm really getting into it and come on, Milan, you need to totally kick Man U's ass at San Siro so I don't end up hating CL; you guys are the only team I have left in Champions League, don't make me start paying attention to Bremen going for the UEFA Cup, although Torsten is love), and the guy in the pic whose face you can see is my favourite. Yoann Gourcuff of AC Milan (attacking midfielder, #20, French, amazing green eyes, TOO HOT FOR WORDS ZOMG WTF, also he has a lovely Brazilian boyfriend in Ricky Kaká). She and I were being silly one day on MSN while I was iconifying, and this icon is the result. Poor, poor Yoannrella. But at least he found his Prince Charming.



Classic Jhonen Vasquez, this one. I just adore him, and he drew this Invader ZIM comic for Nickelodeon Magazine before they gave the show the axe. "It's all in the thumbs!!!" was ZIM's supposed discovery of "the perfect way to appear human"; "See, I've been wiggling mine like this, but humans, they wiggle 'em like this! With my human disguise perfected, no one will be able to stop me from taking over this planet in the name of the Almighty Tallest and the Irken Empire!"



This one is all inseiko's fault. She got me hooked on SMAP, a Japanese boyband that has been around since the beginning of time zomg whut. (Okay, not really, but about twenty years. No joke.) The way the entertainment industry in Japan works is, if you're in a boyband or some such, you act and whatnot too. You do it all, all around idols instead of just singers. At least the Johnny's Jimushou boys do. SMAP is a Johnny's group, and this shot comes from their variety show (Mondays at ten PM) called SMAP×SMAP. This particular skit was one of the ones with P-chan (Kimura Takuya in pink poodle suit) and Shingo Mama (normally played by Katori Shingo but in these played by Shibata Rie). P-chan was always after Shingo Mama, right under Papa's nose, but Papa never believed a word of it. In this shot, P-chan and Shingo (Shingo Mama's and Papa's kid, played by Katori Shingo) were reenacting P-chan's latest seduction attempt for Papa who, of course, thought it was just a joke. The text at the bottom is a combination of the old, old joke about theirloveissopure combined with the cracked out-ness that is SMAP. Theirloveissocrackedout.

Ha, I'm actually writing Kaka/Yoann at this very moment! And I don't even *like* Milan (though I'll cheer for anyone against the Mancs, and yeah).

[daddi-cade.livejournal.com]

Anriginal meme, yay! I'd like to play.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Here you go:
differently-coloured vegetables
ekbom's syndrome
rube goldberg systems

[daddi-cade.livejournal.com]

The first is Eddie, as is the last. The last is the perpetual argument with American-English speakers.

The accent on came after having to correct a lot of Americans.

The veg - purple broccoli, orange cauliflower! How could anyone resist?

Ebkom's Syndrome is the proper version of Restless Leg Syndrome. And Rube Goldberg - oh, just A< HREF="http://www.rube-goldberg.com/">genius.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Here you go:
brothel without walls
long-haired tanned jocks
the cult of milk

[hakeer.livejournal.com]

Eeee, I love your BMfM icon! And omg, don't taint my childhood memories with this furry nonsense. ;D

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

I dragged that fandom kicking and screaming into slash, man. :D Well, they weren't really kicking and screaming that hard, surprisingly enough. I may be wearing rose-coloured glasses, but that fandom was really one of the least wanky ones I've been in, possibly because it was small and kinda close-knit, and we were all well aware that we were writing, you know, BMfM fanfic, so most of us didn't take ourselves too seriously. :D

I'm cold and lonely and obviously you don't love me because you haven't answered my email regardless of the fact that you are at work.

Love me? Meme me? ;)

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Oi, I answered you, dash it all! :p

Meme:
anti-anna laws
green slime syndrome
linette keep-away
(OMG I just noticed "people from belgium" in there! Can I ask this as a bonus interest, just to because? :D)

[troubleinchina.livejournal.com]

anti-anna laws: Came about when I was in China. Was chatting with trahari about how amazing and super and great I was and thought people should just start writing "Anti Anna Laws", to prevent more Annas from being in existence. Cuz we would take over the world.

Or be distracted really easily. ;)

Green Slime Syndrome: Green Slime was on You Can't Do That On Television (where Alanis got her first big break, I guess). Someone - damned if I can remember who - wrote this hilarious send up of the show (where people often got green slime poured on them for being bad) and included testimonials of people suffering from Green Slime Syndrome - I think it causes loss of motivation and your hair to fall out.

linette keep-away: Linette = arabidmouse. She's all wee and tiny and cute, and her boyfriend is a big ape (aka crashusmaximus. Don and I would randomly grab Linette for cuddles and then keep her away from Crash, much to his chagrin and our amusement. Making Linette giggle is a sport that more people should participate in.

people from Belgium: I added that about a week after I met you and decided you were the coolest person ever in the whole world.

No, really, I did. Ask Don.

Icon 1 is from Robin Hood: Men in Tights and I love it because I am TOTALLY made of awesome. And yeah, I only downloaded it because I *knew* I was going to get a job that week and wanted an icon to use when I did. And I did get the job, and it did pay good money because I am MADE of Awesome. ;)

Icon 2 is from The Secret of NIMH, which is a lovely movie. The crow is always after more sparklies. I like sparklies. Sparklies!!!

Icon 3 is from my favourite Disney movie - Sleeping Beauty. I have a thing for Maleficent, the evil witch. She turns into a Dragon and tries to eat the Prince. Stupid Prince didn't get eaten. I was rootin' for the dragon. I loves me some evil. ;)

And I did not get your email, and lord knows there needs to be more OMGWTFFOOBI? soon. Cuz - liz and apes and boys? O.o??

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Dude, Foobie = PAIN.

PAIN!

Lord almighty, Liz is teh DUMB and AUGH and also KILL IT WITH FIYAH!

... Anyway.

I added that about a week after I met you and decided you were the coolest person ever in the whole world.

And you've not removed it once you realised I'm not? :D

(Meme me?)

[ruby-fruit.livejournal.com]

I DENY EVERYTHING.

And the bunny thing is so all your fault.

Hit me up with this meme.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

YOU DENY WHATEVER YOU WANT, BIZNATCH, IT'S STILL ALL YOUR FAULT!

Meme:
caravaggio
cop fetishes
stupid specials on vh1



(You do not have enough icons, dammit.)

[ruby-fruit.livejournal.com]

I AM PURE AND INNOCENT DAMNIT.

caravaggio Italian baroque painter who was bugfuck crazy and did these crazy, gorgeous paintings with this deep, saturated chiaroscuro effect. And the shadows were well beyond realism and the technical bits were occasionally all fucked up but I can still stare at his paintings for hours. Also a great big homo and the subject of a movie where he makes out with Sean Bean.

cop fetishes Um, yes. The uniforms and the handcuffs and the gritty bad assness. It's hot, damn it.

stupid specials on vh1 GOD. Have you ever seen the I Love the < decade > shows? They are pure television crack. I can and have spent all day watching those things. It's scary, man.

#1 Oh sure, pick the one YOU made. :D Ok, so T Rex has been classed as this super predator since they first found it's skeleton and strung it up so incorrectly that both it's back and tail were broken. And no ones ever really questioned that. But now with all the crazy science people are questioning that for a bunch of reasons like, it couldn't actually run much. And if it fell it was so big it's crush itself, and the massive, buzzard like olfactory center in it's brain. So clearly, I am on the scavenger side of this debate. And, um, flail around profanely in paeleontological rage when the super predator shtick gets trotted out. Mostly because there really isn't any evidence for it.

#2 Duncleostes! Massive armored fish of a way long time ago. How could I not icon that face, huh?

#3Jack and Ianto from Torchwood, because they are dear and sweet and really, really hot and I love them. :) Yaay boykissing!
